 Hello,
We are using Linux-CIP Kernel Version 4.19.140-cip33. We do not find
IMX files  in the Kernel supporting Camera Capture through CSI.Could
you get us  how the support can be added?

Can you be more specific about what kernel driver(s) you are missing? Is latest
5.9 supporting this? Then please provide a reference (driver name, DT bindings
or even commit list).

Or are you referring to a feature of the vendor tree (linux-imx)? Then please talk
to NXP and ask about the status of this, if there is an upstream equivalent by
now or if this has been abandoned by them.

CIP has a strict upstream-first policy, so we can't take any downstream patches.
However, if a feature is upstream and only missed the latest CIP kernel, you can
propose backported patches for integration into that kernel. Preconditions:

- they are not invasive to other drivers or the kernel as a whole

- you are a CIP member, or the CIP member community supports the
backport (as it may increase our workload)

Thanks and Regards,
Rajashree Sankar
